Leigh- You can't just take pictures from Google Images without citing the owner and location, but it needs to be released for use and attribution.
Use the advanced search option in Google Images to find images under these restrictions.
At the minimum, cite the author of the picture, the web location, and when you accessed the photo.
Be very cautious about using trademarked or licensed images (Disney, Cartoon Network, Warner Brothers, etc etc)
Flickr and Creative Commons or WikiMedia Commons are better locations to search for pictures.
Microsoft Images can be used freely for education, just give them credit.

Kristin--do we really have to cite Microsoft for clipart? I never see any citations and I see Microsoft Clip Art often used. I have used it because I thought it was for personal use. What would be sufficient for use>
